Sessions

Cloud computing is supposed to save us money as well as time. But early studies show that dedicated machines can deliver better costs for certain applications. In other words, your mileage may vary. Joeseph Weinman, who coined the term "Cloudonomics" and conducts research into the economics of cloud computing, will give us a look at the math behind public clouds and where cloud economics are headed.

On Day Two of Enterprise Cloud Summit, we'll turn our eye outward to look at the many public cloud offerings that are levelling the IT playing field. Public cloud providers offer pay-as-you-go economics and tremendous flexibility; but they also create new security, portability, and performance concerns. Once the exclusive domain of web startups, today enterprises big and small are finding ways to incorporate public cloud platforms into their IT strategy. Whether you're deciding how to embrace them or want to learn from what others are doing, Enterprise Cloud Summit is the place to do it.
